AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) | Domain 4 Cost Optimization, AWS Health, and Marketplace Questions 07

1 / 100.0s

Problem 1

A Trusted Advisor low-utilization EC2 check repeatedly lists two instances that are intentionally kept on standby for disaster recovery exercises. The instances must remain, but the team wants to remove them temporarily from only this check result.

Which action is most appropriate?

View explanation

As of August 22, 2026, Trusted Advisor allows an individual item to be removed from a check result with Exclude and Refresh and restored later with Include and Refresh. This marks an intentional exception without stopping or deleting the resource. A Cost Explorer display filter does not change Trusted Advisor exclusions.

Problem 2

An operations team wants to use historical EC2 CPU, memory, and network utilization to compare candidate instance types and projected utilization while retaining adequate performance headroom.

Which AWS service is most appropriate for this rightsizing decision?

View explanation

As of August 22, 2026, AWS Compute Optimizer analyzes resource configuration and CloudWatch utilization metrics and presents rightsizing candidates, idle findings, and projected utilization graphs. These recommendations help compare cost with performance headroom, but viewing a recommendation does not automatically modify the resource.

Problem 3

One EC2 instance has two recommendations: delete it because it is idle, and downsize it because it is over-provisioned. The company must avoid simply adding both savings estimates because the actions cannot be performed together.

Which feature best meets the requirement?

View explanation

As of August 22, 2026, Cost Optimization Hub aggregates recommendations from multiple optimization sources and avoids double-counting mutually exclusive actions such as deleting and rightsizing the same resource. It adjusts interacting recommendations and generally includes the higher savings opportunity. The displayed savings are estimates rather than guaranteed realized savings.

Problem 4

An administrator wants to review an ongoing service event that affects an Amazon RDS resource in the administrator's own account, along with upcoming maintenance and recommended actions.

Which location should the administrator check first?

View explanation

As of August 22, 2026, AWS Health Dashboard provides personalized views of ongoing events, scheduled changes, and recommended actions that affect services and resources in the authenticated account. It is available to all AWS customers at no additional charge. The requirement is account-specific impact on the RDS resource, not only general public service status.

Problem 5

A developer wants to search official troubleshooting articles for a general AWS technical question and, if no answer exists, ask AWS employees and community experts. No confidential account data will be posted.

Which technical resource is most appropriate?

View explanation

As of August 22, 2026, AWS re:Post is an AWS-managed knowledge hub that combines official AWS Knowledge Center content with a technical Q&A community of AWS employees, experts, and customers. It fits research and discussion of broadly applicable questions. Because it is a public community, confidential account-specific incidents should instead use an appropriate contracted Support channel.

Problem 6

Company network logs show repeated intrusion attempts from an AWS IP address. The company has preserved the target IP address, timestamps with time zones, and relevant log excerpts and wants to report suspected abuse to AWS.

Which reporting method is appropriate?

View explanation

As of August 22, 2026, suspected intrusion attempts, DDoS activity, spam, and other abuse originating from AWS resources should be reported to Trust and Safety through the AWS abuse form or another designated channel. Activity reports should include IP addresses, accurate timestamps, and logs. Standard AWS Support does not handle abuse reports or questions about Trust and Safety notices.

Problem 7

A company negotiates custom pricing, a payment schedule, and EULA terms with the seller of a SaaS product in AWS Marketplace. The terms must remain nonpublic and be available only to a designated buyer AWS account.

What should the company ask the seller to create?

View explanation

As of August 22, 2026, an AWS Marketplace private offer presents negotiated nonpublic pricing, payment terms, and EULA terms to designated AWS accounts. When the buyer accepts it before expiration, it becomes an agreement and appears in Marketplace billing details. Neither an SCP nor a cost allocation tag creates contractual terms with the seller.

Problem 8

A company uses AWS Organizations. Research and sales departments need different sets of permitted Marketplace products, and users in each OU should be able to create new subscriptions only from an approved catalog.

Which feature is most appropriate?

View explanation

As of August 22, 2026, AWS Private Marketplace integrates with Organizations and assigns curated catalogs of approved products to an organization, OU, or account. Users can browse products outside the catalog and request approval, but new procurement of unapproved products is restricted. It does not immediately terminate the use of existing subscriptions.

Problem 9

An AWS Organizations management account accepts a private offer for a SaaS product that can be shared with member accounts. One member account was already subscribed to the same product at its public price.

What must that member account do to receive the newly negotiated price?

View explanation

As of August 22, 2026, a private offer accepted by the management account can be shared with the organization, but a member account already subscribed to the product must accept the new private offer to receive its negotiated price. Changing a billing display or rejoining the organization does not amend the agreement. Some product types also offer license-sharing options through AWS License Manager.

Problem 10

Company A develops and sells its own SaaS product that runs on AWS. Company B provides AWS migration design, implementation, and managed operations for customers. Each wants to join the AWS Partner Path that best matches its primary offering.

Which mapping is appropriate?

View explanation

As of August 22, 2026, the Software Path is intended for organizations that offer software products, while the Services Path covers consulting, professional, managed, and value-added resale services. Therefore, the SaaS seller maps to Software and the migration and operations provider maps to Services. A partner can enroll in more than one Path when it has multiple types of offerings.
